Supercharged and Turbocharged Subaru STi

Saw this on H-T and thought I would share. Don't mind the decals, the car is still a beast. I believe he said it has 550 whp and the point was so that he could ahve the quick spoll of a supercharger then switch over to the high top end of the turbo and eliminate any turbo lag cause by such a big turbo.








^ 3 boost gauges - 1 for turbo, 1 for supercharger, and 1 for total boost that the engine sees

I would guess the amount of the car. 30k maybe. Why did they have to ruin the car with those gay decals?

Because it,in general,is a waste! Note the third gauge-total boost! About the only real use is a rally car, all most all other times the supercharger is just eatting HP. There were also BMW rally cars using this in the 70s and 80s.
